So I bought this awhile ago paid 200$, p28 socked ecu connected to the blue s200 interface. How does this work exactly? I still need to buy a labtop just for this so it will be a budget one just to get the job done. I need to download a software to data log right, so what options do I have? Its Going in a ek with a H2b. I was planning on to learn how to tune it myself to where it drives good enough to be satisfied. What is the two middle connection for the clutch switch and set button
Unfortunately, at this point it's a paperweight or at best a nostalgia decoration. Your only hope would be to find an older laptop to dedicate to the project or that you can roll the OS way back on, but that's probably more work than it's worth.
The good news? Decent condish P28s are going for well north of $125 these days, so you're not really losing much on the S200 if the ecu can be re-used with an S300. Theoretically you can swap the S300 right in, just make sure all of the capacitors have been replaced.

ok how much is it do upgrade to the s300 if you know? Also is there another option as far as different interfaces i can use and or different data logging software other then the hondata one s200. Thanks for the reply man
OP, You will need to upgrade that through an Authorized Hondata Dealer. My tuner has done a TON of those StageX/S100/S200 to S300 upgrades. PM me if you want that contact information. It MUST be a functioning box... yours is missing a few plugs, so you would have to ask about that.
